The ‘season’ed traveler goes now
The period from November to March tends to bring heavier rains, otherwise a temperate equatorial
climate the year round keeps it pleasant.
‘Savour’ faire
Exotic fruits are the best eatables to have, including the Rambutan (a bright hairy crimson-skinned fruit with sweet white flesh), relished across Southeast Asia. The Durian is a must-know, if you are brave enough to fight the odour!
Get to work
Get the whole family for a joy ride at the Jerudong Park, or take a speedboat ride through the jungle waters at Temburong.
What’s the word?
Official language is Malay, though English shouldn’t be a problem. ‘Terimah Kasih’ or ‘Thank You’ in Malay should get you a smile.
